The
Shima Imperium verges on the brink of environmental collapse; an island nation
once rich in tradition and myth, now decimated by clockwork industrialization
and the machine-worshipers of the Lotus Guild. When hunters of Shima's imperial
court are charged by their Shōgun to capture a legendary griffin, they fear
their lives are over. Any fool knows the beasts have been extinct for more than
a century, and the price of failing the Shōgun is death.
Accompanying her father on the Shōgun’s hunt, the girl Yukiko finds herself stranded: a young woman alone in Shima’s last wilderness, with only a furious, crippled griffin for company. Even though she can hear his thoughts, even though she saved his life, all she knows for certain is he’d rather see her dead than help her. But together, the pair will form an indomitable friendship, and rise to challenge the might of an empire.
